Fantastic, I love the perspective on this, it looks spot-on. I just want to reach out for that hind paw coming at us

Loving the "in your face" paw lol How do you managed to get the angle right with these kinds of pictures? And if its refs do you have examples at all? xxx

Thank you very much! This pose was difficult, and it took a lot of trial and error to get it to look right. I couldn't find any good reference pictures for this angle (though I did find a few for the pose; these were the ones I looked at: [link] [link] [link] ). One thing I did to try to get the angle right was that I molded my kneaded eraser into a sculpture of a running dog and looked at it from this angle - that helped a bit.

I LOVE that pose! My suggestion would be to color the paw pads on the front paws, because they look...weird and rather un natural when they aren't colored
But again, I LOVE the origanal feel to the drawin!

Looks great! The only thing that looks a little weird is the front legs/paws; I'm not sure why though.

This is a really hard pose to do and I love how you drew it Flann. You drew it amazingly and every detail fits with the pose. The expression, how the legs bend, how the tail bends, everything. You really did an ace job on it, and the coloring is good as well.
